Bought this for a baby shower and it got the biggest reaction of all the gifts. The name being part of the story makes it feel really personal. His mum teared up a little when she saw the cover.
I have bought a lot of baby gifts, and this one felt different. It is not noisy or flashy, just thoughtful. The baby’s name running through the book makes it something the family can keep.
I bought this for my friend’s baby shower and everyone wanted to look through it. The parents loved seeing their baby’s name on the cover and through the story. It felt much more personal than the usual baby gifts.
We chose this as a welcome gift for our new granddaughter. Her parents loved the dedication page and the way her name appears through the book. It feels personal without being over the top. Very happy with it.
I ordered this for my grandson and was surprised by how lovely it looked in person. The illustrations are gentle and full of little details, and the story has a very sweet message without feeling too much. Seeing his name appear through the book made it feel really personal, not like a standard baby gift. His parents were delighted with it and said it is going straight on his first bookshelf.
Bought this for our first baby and I got emotional reading it. It says so many of the things you feel when a new baby arrives, but in a soft and simple way. I love the little wishes in the story, the animal illustrations are gorgeous, and seeing our baby’s name throughout made it feel like something we will keep forever.
